~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can make it so an animation plays automatically when the AnimationPlayer nodes
scene starts, or joins another scene. To do this click the "Autoplay on load"
button in the animation editor, it's right next to the edit button.

Onion Skinning
--------------
Godot's animation editor allows you use onion skinning while creating an
animation. To turn this feature on click on the onion icon in the top right
of the animation editor. Now there will be transparent red copies of what
is being animated in its previous positions in the animation.

The three dots button next to the onion skinning button opens a dropdown
menu that lets you adjust how it works, including the ability to use
onion skinning for future frames.
